Advents calendars played a big part of my childhood during Christmas. It was exciting to wake up each morning and get a taste of milk chocolate before breakfast. I don’t ever recall there being options outside of chocolate calendars. Now you can get calendars with beauty products, lego pieces, tsum tsums, teas, wine (this is one I would love to buy), and basically a lot of things other than chocolate. So cool. Well, that got me thinking about Wendy’s advent calendar. She loves reading, so then I thought why not put together an easy DIY book advent calendar? I know she already has a pretty big book collection, but she doesn’t have many Christmas books.Read More

Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire….or in the oven

In our family, we pulled these babies out of the oven after dinner, put on a Christmas movie, make some hot chocolates, and enjoy them together. Read More
My Christmas Tree does have a theme, you just don’t see it yet
Yesterday was National Christmas Tree Day, and my Instagram was filled with tons of trees being set up in homes all around the world. Truth be told, I’ve had my tree up for a few weeks now. When I put up the tree, I hemmed and hawed at what my overall Christmas theme would be. Would I decorate in whites and silvers? Maybe I could do woodland characters again, or try something like bright pinks and purples and icy blues. Then I stopped myself. I looked down at the boxes of Christmas ornaments and realized something. Our tree does have a theme and its a pretty big oneRead More
